This hurts me. One client of mine, 86 years old, was taken by a scam call from "Microsoft" for $6,800 today by wire transfer. Don't answer the phone or just hang up if this ever happens to you. Microsoft will never call you! #PhoneScam 😡

Just had a phone call from an 01583 number, which I didn't answer. (Nobody ever calls me!)

Thought I'd check it out and here is what I found, so I thought I'd just warn everyone!

#scam #phonescam #blocked
A screenshot of an AI overview reading: Calls from the 01583 area code, particularly those beginning with 01583 240, are associated with a series of dangerous, high-volume, and fraudulent scam calls. These callers often impersonate energy surveyors, local insulation advisors, or telecom companies (like Sky or EE) to gather personal details.

1/2 New-to-me scam: Guy texts me with a saccharine sweet message. I tell him wrong number. He apologizes profusely then starts to try to flirt with me. Which is so far kinda fun given I keep subtly switching genders on him. He’s phishing for information about me. I’m giving him none.
